Finally we went to the famous Sungai Besi Wan Tan Mee (全蛋面) last weekend. This was the place we attempted to go a couple months ago, but my house mate got lost on the way, ended up driving around KL for almost 2 hours before finally admitted defeat and ate at some road stalls at Bangsar instead. That incident gave her an excuse to upgrade to an expensive GPS phone, but anyhow, we got there this time (we didn’t use the GPS)

this place is usually packed with hungry customers

For the three of us, we ordered a wan tan with mushroom noodle, a mushroom chicken feet noodle, a curry chicken noodle, deep fried sui kow, a plate of deep fried prawn, and some oily vegetable. See, the good thing about this place is the variety of different “wan tan mee” you can order. The other toppings include the original wan tan and char siew (BBQ pork), curry wild boar, ginger duck, pork knuckle, sui kow, and Hakka stew pork.

some of the good stuff we ordered

The noodle served here was actually pretty good, though I feel that it is still 2nd to the stall in Pudu, but still pretty good nonetheless. The toppings and other items were pretty decent as well, and the RM 6 deep fried prawn really offered value for money. Other than the traditional chili, this place also offered two types of delicious sambal to go with the side dishes (sui kow and prawn).

prawn, sui kow, vegetable, noodles, best

The meal was pretty satisfying. However, they can be a little pricey. Including drinks, we had to part with RM 36 for the three of us. That was for the 3 plates of noodle and three side dishes ordered. Then again, you do get the variety and a different taste from the ordinary wan tan plus char siew.

Did she mark this down at her GPS. Then I can use the coordinates to look for this place. I did hear quite a few people say this place is not the original rite? Seems it has shifted to Jalan Kuchai Lama.

I believe babekl once mentioned that this is not the original owner. I’ve been here many times (this one included) and do find the place to be not as good as when i first tried it many years ago. the choices are nice but i’d only go there if i craved wantan mee at night. i’m sure there are better places in KL

[…] A pal of mine, shiang introduced me to this wan tan mee place in SS2 after reading my take on the Sungai Besi wan tan mee place. The dude claimed that he had ate at this place 3 days in a row upon discovering it. Since I usually trust the taste of this not-so-skinny guy, I just had to give this place a try. […]

had it for dinner today…nothng spectacular…those wanton mee that i go repeatedly will be restoran OK at SS 2 chow yang, the senior man and his daughter (i think open after 2 pm), koon kee at damansara jaya (its mushroom chick feet is good), and Sek 17 pj – young couple restaurant sth intan…home made noodles is good, (the other day i went again but ran out of noodles and he apologised and that he need to make again…) – imagine if we can have the sek 17 home made noodle with Meng Kee Char siu….yum yum…salivating..

A test for good wantan noodles is when you ‘ta-pau’. The noodles must still remain moist and not clumping together. This stall definitely pass the ‘tapau’ test. I had chicken feet and mushrooms and char siew & wantan. However, the soup is not nice. So better to order konlo …
